For this episode, we return to the world of stage lighting, and a discussion with one of the UK’s leading lighting programmers, Vic Brennan. The role of lighting programmer varies considerably depending on the style of the work being made, but there is noone more crucial to the process of bringing the lighting designer’s vision to life, whether it be a fast-paced music theatre number or a subtle, shifting scheme for a play. Vic joins Bruno and James to consider the nature and significance of this collaboration, what makes for a good programmer, and to reveal there is a whole lot more to the job than sitting in the dark and pointing bright lights in everyone’s eyes..
